Odysseus' Palace

Odysseus' Palace was a palace situated on the Greek island of Ithaca, said to have been the personal residence of King Odysseus. The palace was home to Odysseus, his wife Penelope, and their son Telemachus, and it was the site of the massacre of Penelope's suitors following Odysseus' return home from the Trojan War. Over the next thousand years, the palace became a ruins, and, in 431 BC, it was festering with bandits who had stolen Penelope's woven shroud from Elpenor of Kyrrha and imprisoned Odysseus' descendant Odessa of Megaris. That same year, the mercenary Kassandra slew the bandits, freed Odessa, and returned the shroud to Elpenor.
